Abstract

Safety apparatus mounted in vehicle for protecting an occupant in the case of a collision comprises a cushion 24 having a normally collapsed condition and an expanded condition (shown by chain-dotted lines) and explosive means (46, Fig. 2, not shown) electrically detonated by an inertia-switch sensor 30 (see Division H1) actuated by deceleration due to a collision, has the sensor 30 mounted on a firewall 40 so as to be substantially isolated from vibrations due to normal conditions of use of the vehicle.
